The unidentified masked man was captured on surveillance footage as he entered the store in Florida last month. He allegedly told staff he was "very sorry for doing this" and was carrying out the heist because his "kids need Christmas."

According to police, the man asked the employee to open the three registers on the counter and put the contents into a backpack.

A witness told police that the suspect was "very polite" throughout the robbery.

Police have not captured the man who has been described as a black male with a light complexion and a medium frame in his early 20s. He is about 5'8" tall and wore a dark gray sweatshirt with the word "Nike" in black letters, dark pants and black gloves. He had a gold grill on his teeth and a mustache.
